Your church is a "transforming"
congregation when it commits to minister God's grace and
truth to the sexually confused, broken and sinful in its church
family and community.

Here are some ways you and your
church can get practically involved:

Challenge
our cultural myths – that “everybody’s doing it,” that
what consenting adults do behind closed doors is their business
alone, that homosexuals are “born that way” and cannot
change. Get informed – from Scripture and from solid
scientific and psychological studies – and then be prepared to
share what you believe.

Offer
a warm and welcoming place to the sexual strugglers in your
congregation. Those who succeed in overcoming same-sex
attraction have attributed much of
their success to a supportive church family - brothers and
sisters in Christ who understand their struggle and
compassionately encourage them to persevere and overcome.

Proclaim
the hope – and the reality – of transformation. Read
books and testimonies about those who have found freedom from
homosexual and heterosexual sin. Better yet, talk to one of
them. Or take the risk of sharing your own testimony. Know where
people can get help, and direct them there.

Invite
a Transforming Congregations speaker to come to your area to
teach or preach about transformational sexual healing. You
can also host our workshop -- "Forward
into
Ministry"
-- to educate and equip your church leaders for effective
ministry to the sexually sinful, confused or broken.

Partner
with us through your prayers and
financial contributions.
Consider making Transforming Congregations part of your personal
or church’s regular mission giving.
